I didn't need to install v1.4 a second time.
I just did a CTRL-C and CTRL-V of the C:\ProgramFiles folder and am able to run two copies OK.
Should I expect any problems with this method?

I can see a corresponding new Data folder is being used automatically.

« on: November 18, 2015, 09:56:19 pm »Hi all! Sorry if this was answered before but I didn't found any workaround.
I've followed Jan's instructions and installed 12 (twelve) SD instances. All is OK, except because I just can run only ten, when I try to run the 11th nothing happens.
I'll appreciate any answer that point me to a solution.
Many thanks in advance.

« on: January 04, 2014, 01:44:57 pm »The software keeps settings in different subfolders in Application data so the instances settings stay independent.
Each instance must be installed into different subfolder. For example:
C:\Program Files\Silence Detector 1\
C:\Program Files\Silence Detector 2\
Now an example of bad installation (the subfolder has the same name):
C:\Channel 1\Silence Detector\
C:\Channel 2\Silence Detector\
The user can show what folder the application uses for saving settings. Just go to Setup - About - Data folder.
Note: The reason why settings are no longer stored directly in the application folder is given by stupid Microsoft system called UAC which prohibits writes into the application folder, incl. ini file with the same name as the application has. As a result, to prevent problems with older applications, users usually turn off annoying UAC completely...

In previous versions I have run multiple instances with different configurations by copying the program folders and renaming them for each instance. This has worked well for monitoring our 4 stations with a Delta 1010 sound card on a single computer.
However, version 1.3a seems to pull the configuration from a common location, so it doesn't mater from what folder you launch from, it grabs the configuration of the last one edited.
Any way around this?
